Topics getting the most attention in Town of Brighton public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
2027 Town Budget and Tax Cap Override
The board adopted the 2027 town and special district budgets and a local law letting the town exceed the state tax cap, blaming double-digit health insurance and benefit increases. Residents will see the results in next year's tax bill; the override permits but doesn't require exceeding the cap.
Town Hall Phase 2 Site Work and Tree Removal
The town is moving forward with soliciting bids for Town Hall Phase II site work, though some board members raised concerns about parking design and public input.
